Have you have injured in a public transportation accident in Las Vegas?

Bus & Transit Accidents

The Vegas Auto Injury Lawyers represent people who have been injured or killed in bus accidents in Las Vegas. Buses are not just big cars. Their size and the way they drive requires  special training to ensure that the vehicle is driven safely. Commercial driver’s license and maintenance requirements may apply. The interaction between large buses and trucks and smaller vehicles on the road can make navigating city streets complicated. Bus drivers must also contend with distractions that individual drivers don’t. All of these factors (and more) can lead to accidents involving buses and other large vehicles. If you’ve been in a bus accident or one involving a truck or other large vehicle, you need to know what to do next to make sure that you get any compensation that you’re entitled to.

Our firm has the experience to recognize and handle unique factors associated with large buses and trucks. Whether you were injured as a passenger on a bus, as a driver in a collision with a bus, or as a pedestrian, Las Vegas Auto Injury Lawyers can help. We have represented people who have been paralyzed or killed or whose cars have burst into flames in bus accidents.

If you were injured in a bus accident as a resident or while visiting Las Vegas, our law firm can help. We have the experience needed to get to the bottom of your case. We can help find out who was at fault for the bus accident, what factors led to the accident, and what compensation you may be entitled to. We confidently and compassionately guide clients through the legal process that accompanies a bus accident case. Our goal is to make the process as easy and hassle free as possible for the victims of these accidents. 

In car accidents, one driver or the other is typically at fault, but accidents involving buses and other large vehicles can be more complicated. Factors at play include which company is operating the bus or other large vehicle, the location where the accident takes place, the area where the bus is registered, and more. The laws and insurance surrounding these accidents are complicated, and require specialized knowledge to navigate.

Parties at fault for bus accidents can include:

  • Bus drivers
  • Managers at the company operating the bus
  • The manufacturer of the bus
  • The company that performs maintenance on the vehicle
  • Third party negligent drivers
  • Government entities, if a public transit vehicle is involved

Determining the cause of a bus accident
After a bus accident, our firm takes the necessary steps to investigate the accident’s cause. We work to determine the liable party and if negligence contributed to or caused the accident:
Negligent bus drivers — Was the driver licensed and properly trained? Was the driver speeding or driving recklessly?
Negligent bus companies — Was the bus properly maintained? Were mechanical problems repaired? Was the driver’s traffic record checked and monitored?
Dangerous road conditions — Did design defects or dangerous road conditions contribute to or cause the accident?
Once we determine the cause of the accident, we can take legal action and seek compensation on behalf of the injured parties.
